There is some type of water leak between the sidewalk and the road at the corner of S Tudor Lane and E Allendale Drive. The ground is soft and there is water that has flowed into the street.
Switchyard Dog Park needs a hose or more accessible water spout/fountain installed for large communal (dog) water bowls. Ferguson model works well. An awning that actually provides shade (current one does not) would also be wonderful. Thank you :)
The south end of the sidewalk in phase 2 near the gazebo is sinking. There is at least 20 inches of no dirt below the sidewalk, hence it is sinking. The sidewalk is next to the sewer drain where the earth has disappeared and with all of the water problems we have had recently with water mains, the city needs to come inspect. One city worked thought this drain runs right next to departed neighbor Cassie Howard's condo which then should worry us as the ground beneath her condo also disappeared causing her slab to sink and foundation to go bad. These two problems could be connected and the area below the sidewalk cannot simply be filled in with dirt. It has to be inspected including a city inspection. We need to see why it is all sinking.
The city water connection that is in my back yard is leaking water directly into ground, and charging me for it. If you pull off the top and remove the insulation in the iron-topped hole where water shutoff is, you will hear the constant leakage, and you can see it spraying out into the damp earth. No idea how long its been happening, but clearly for a while. It has the insulation wet, and that will freeze and cause further problems soon.
Utility crews cut into the road to install new water connection/meter. The patch of gravel they left behind was hastily and poorly covered with a thin layer of asphalt and is still filled with loose gravel. Cars are flinging gravel all over the street and the whole is getting larger by the day. Please address this soon, as it was a direct result of the city's actions and the poor work of city employees.
Looks like there is water leaking into street from recent city work. Location of leak is in the cul de sac on S Daniel Ct in the Kensington neighborhood.
The tree inside the large dog park has a large diameter dip around the base of it. This dip is constantly filled with very rank smelling water and I along with all other dog owners have discussed how unhappy we are that we must bathe our dogs anytime we take them to get exercise. My dog needs consistent exercise and the best way to do this is at the dog park, but constant bathing can cause skin to dry out. At one point, the city had placed a temporary barrier around it so I believed there was hope for a solution, but since then the barrier has been taken down.
Over the past 75 years, health authorities have promoted community water fluoridation to reduce dental caries. Until recently, however, no studies had examined the safety of fluoride in vulnerable populations, like pregnant women and infants. This video describes the history of water fluoridation and new research that found fluoride is toxic to the developing brain.” http://fluoridealert.org/articles/little-things-matter-fluoride-brain/?fbclid=IwAR0tovpJ3NggXR1qS4Hq3KzZQeq-UKvpnkiUTMMjs7Ij3tS0rhxVwqONbgU Public water Supply & disinfectants The City of Bloomington needs to fallow the work of Fluoride Action Network and their Active EPA Law suits to stop the use of harmfull Chemical's.

THANK YOU for keeping the path clear of leaves this fall. It has enhanced our walk each day. We also appreciate the two new "bridges" across the path where water used to stand. Very nice. I'm wondering if the southern most "bridge" will get a railing of some kind. It seems a little precarious for walkers who might lose their balance. Thanks for considering this safety feature.
Just noticed that water pressure dropped a lot within the last few minutes. Is there something being worked on in the Vroadview area right now?
